Finding 100 More or Less than a Number

When we add or take away 100 from a number, we need to focus on the hundreds column.

Find 100 more

To add 100, we add 1 to the number in the hundreds column:
- 370 + 100 = 470

Find 100 less

To take away 100, we subtract 1 from the number in the hundreds column:
- 370 - 100 = 270

Add 1 to 9

Sometimes we want to add 100 and the number in the hundreds column is 9.
To do this, change the 9 to a 0 and add 1 to the number in the thousands column:
- 4980 + 100 = 5080

Take away 1 from 0

Sometimes we want to take away 100 and the number in the hundreds column is 0.
To do this, change the 0 to a 9 and take away 1 from the number in the thousands column:
- 1056 - 100 = 0956 = 956
